Patient's question:
15 daysDetailed medical condition and consultation purpose: My child had been having a bowel movement once a day before. For a newborn, it's a bit less, but it was normal for them to do so daily. Starting last week, their bowel movements increased, and they had one almost every time after feeding. I thought it was diarrhea and took them to the hospital for a check-up. The stool test came back normal, showing no signs of diarrhea. The doctor still prescribed a diarrhea medication, "Dulrebavir," which they took for two days but showed no improvement. I stopped giving it to them, and now the child still has bowel movements after eating, but except for one larger one in the morning, the rest are very small—sometimes just a trickle. I don't know if this is
Doctor's answer:
Hello, according to your description, the baby may have digestive issues. There's no need to worry too much. Since the baby is in the infant stage, their digestive function is not fully developed, so digestive problems are normal. It's important to keep the baby warm and avoid getting cold. When feeding, pay attention to the posture and avoid feeding too quickly or too full to prevent inhaling cold air. Breastfeeding mothers should eat easily digestible foods and can take some Mamikai to regulate the intestinal flora. Hope this helps.
